What's new:1. Accept wildcard as the parameter in the command line rule. For example, now you can target all parameter for powershell.exe by setting the rule to block powershell.exe command line that the parameter starts with *. This will allow you to create a stricter command line rule for the applications that are potentially risky to be misused by the attacker. Wild card parameter is only applicable for the parameter that has "starts with" rule.2. Supports whitelisting for Linux native executable files. This is to support the new Windows feature: Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). Currently WSL feature is still Beta in Windows 10. By default WSL is not installed in Windows 10.
